Abstract:

A golf swing training aid is provided that is manually formed at the time of use from a prepared, uniquely constructed sheet-platform of semi-rigid, joint-able material. The golf swing training aid comprises a positioning flap, a horizontal flap, an illumination device disposed on the horizontal flap, and a hinged club-attachment flap. The joint-able material is scored (such as by perforation, pre-bending, kiss-cutting, or the like) to facilitate the bending of particular failure/score lines to form the various flaps.The preferably dual illumination device provides an illuminated and bi-colored representation of the otherwise imperceptible elements of a golf swing, allowing the golfer to visualize and correct his swing plane, perpendicular club head alignment at impact, and sweet spot alignment.Not only does the golf swing training aid provide a beneficial service to the golfer, it also is customizable for promotional or marketing purposes by standard printing techniques.
